ALPHA GAVRAEL ACCUSED
GAVRAEL *** “I thought I lost you.” She said as I held her close. I was so relieved to feel her breath on my skin, her touch, the beat of her heart. But something was missing, I was just too distracted to immediately figure it out. “Gav, there are so many things we don’t know. Things we don’t understand. We need to find answers. My grandmother tried to warn me about this but I never really understood what she was trying to tell me till now. Did she ever tell you anything?” She asked me and I was confused. Why will her dead grandmother tell me anything? Had she seen the woman when her soul left her body and was now confusing the dead with the living? “Why will she tell me anything? I never met her. From what I know, she died long before I awakened.” I replied to her. “It’s a long story. My grandmother was alive until a while ago, you met her, talked to her. But after she died, she was somehow erased from everyone’s memory. What matters is that she was trying to tell me that we we
ALPHA GAVRAEL THE UNKNOWN ENEMY REVEALED
ADAIRA***“I am not a witch.” I said and he grabbed my throat.He was livid, his red irises burning with rage. Whenever he was like this, I could never get through to him.“Then what explanation do you have for what you just did?” He asked as he grabbed my hair.I tried to free myself but I couldn’t move, he was using his power on me. And I had no explanation for what just happened, I had no idea what I did or how I did it. Same way I had no idea what had tried to suck my soul from me and how he was even able to bring me back. There are so many strange things to consider, how did he expect me to have answers to this one.“I… d.don’t…”I could barely breathe so I don’t know how he expected me to reply to him. And without our bond, we couldn’t communicate through our minds.“Let’s go pay your parents a visit. If you don’t know, I’m sure they do. Or maybe you’ll tell me the truth when they’re close enough for me to snap their necks.” He said with a menacing growl and my eyes widened in
ALPHA GAVRAEL BROTHER IN LAW?
GAVRAEL***I could understand everything more clearly now. Adaira keeps denying that she’s a witch, but she has to be. There is no other explanation for her use of powers. I had mine because of my demon half, she must also be a hybrid. That was why she was fated to me, why her soul could match mine. Or maybe she wasn’t fated to me at all, maybe it was all a trick by one of her ancestors. If she won’t tell me the truth, I will get it out of her one way or the other. I had to know if what I felt for her was real, or if it was just an illusion planted in my mind by one of the sage wolves that cast my imprisonment spell. My rage was getting the better of me, but I needed it. She would only respond to force. Maybe I could trigger her powers again, force her to confess the truth to me. How could she so cruelly be a part of this? How did they even accomplish this? She hadn’t been born when they imprisoned me, how did they bind my soul to hers when she was centuries from being born? Shouldn’
ALPHA GAVRAEL BAITING THE FOOL
ADAIRA***My mind was reeling. I couldn’t fathom all the information my brain was receiving at once. I couldn’t understand why I was in my father’s arms, but not for an embrace because his intent was to harm and maybe kill me.“F.father… what are y.you do.doing?” I asked as I tried to speak despite the claws deep in my neck.“I am not your father, you bitch. Your weak minded father has been gone for years. And you’re so weak that you didn’t even notice my presence. The only person who had a suspicion was your mother, and that was only because of the damn mate bond she had with your father. It took nearly all of my power to create a bond between us that would mimic it so she would be at ease. You ruined all my plans! You should have just mated that bastard Alpha like I told you to.”Thinking back, I guess it made a little sense why my father suddenly became hostile towards us. Most times he seemed calm, then other times, he would act like he was a different person, become so mean and
ALPHA GAVRAEL ORPHANED
GAVRAEL *** There was no thought in my head, only rage. The idiot before me was obviously too proud to exercise caution, which was why he had the audacity to step away from Adaira, thinking he could take me. He insists that I’m weak, but he didn’t realise that the only thing keeping him alive was the fact that he had my mate in his arms. Without her, I will make mincemeat out of him. I didn’t even have to expend much energy to freeze him on the spot. I was in front of him in the next second and my hand went through his chest to grab his heart the same way he wanted to kill Adaira. “No one touches what is mine and lives to tell the tale.” I said in his face as he started to choke on his blood. “This body is just a shell, brother. Its death means nothing. We will meet again, and I will kill you.” He said and I growled as I ripped out his heart. “NOOOOO!” I heard a scream and then Adaira’s mother ran towards me. I thought she wanted to attack me but she just fell to the ground besid
ALPHA GAVRAEL REFORMED
ADAIRA~Numb. That was the only word that could describe my life and my state of mind at the moment. I just felt numb. Staring at my parent’s lifeless bodies should have made me react in some way, maybe cry or scream, but I just felt like my emotions had been detached from their original position and were now floating away. Gavrael picked me up and carried me, then I felt light headed for a split second before we appeared in his room. He seemed to understand that I had no words right now, so he didn’t speak, he just took me to the bathroom. We were both already naked so it was easier to just get us both into the shower and wash the dirt off us. Then he carried me to his bed. I lay beside him while he stroked my hair and nuzzled my neck.“I’ve had your parents moved away from the front of the cell house. Tomorrow, you can decide to bury or cremate them.” He said to me.He must have mind linked one of his pack mates to do the task. I appreciated it, even though I didn’t say anything to
ALPHA GAVRAEL HE LEFT
ADAIRA**I had weird dreams. Dreams of wars and death that seemed more like memories I have lived through or will live through in the future. In every one of these dreams, I saw a different version of me, with white hair and white eyes. I saw my grandmother again, she was warning me to hurry, telling me that we were running out of time. I tried to ask her questions but I could not do so in my dream, it was like there was a barrier between us and she kept being pulled away from me and out of my reach.I woke up with a slight headache then discovered that it wasn’t because of my dreams. Since our mate bond has been restored, I could feel the emotions of Gavrael’s pack members. They all seemed to be excited and restless like they were preparing for something and the pull of feeling all of it at once was what was giving me a headache. I usually block out everyone but I hadn’t done so after the marking last night. I always closed off this part of me that was bonded to his pack because I r
ALPHA GAVRAEL HER REMAINING FAMILY
ADAIRA~I didn’t even have the strength to leave the room. Tamika came in about an hour after Gavrael left to attend to me. She made me get up to bathe and though I wanted to remain in the room, I left it for mine. I didn’t want to be there when Gavrael returned. My grandfather came in much later to visit me after Tamika couldn’t get me to eat anything. She must have been the one to call him. Seeing him made the tears I had managed to keep at bay return.“Oh Ady.” He said as he joined me on the bed.I turned to face him as he wrapped his arms around me and began to cry. He was just a reminder that it was just the two of us left now.“It will be okay, child. I’m here now.” He said as he stroked my hair, even though I felt his own sorrow.“They’re gone.”“I’m here. I’m still here. We still have each other.” He said as he kissed my forehead.I didn’t reply to him, just held him closer and soaked up all the comfort he was offering, the comfort that my own mate couldn’t even stay behind t

ALPHA GAVRAEL EPILOGUE
EPILOGUE ~ Using up so much power drained both me and Gavrael, and we both passed out almost immediately after. We didn’t wake up till after two whole days because our bodies shut down to heal and recuperate. When we finally woke up, we discovered that using so much power had broken the hold of the third souls we each had. I no longer possessed Selene’s soul and Gavrael no longer possessed the soul of the demon king. Their essence had returned to the volcano realm after their souls split from ours. They couldn’t be killed, she was a goddess and he was a god, but it would take a long time for them to recreate a physical form. For now, I was just happy that we would no longer be the victims of an age long war. Then came another problem, the issue of Gavrael’s possessiveness. He was no longer under the control of the demon king, but now that he knew I was pregnant, his wolf was just as easily pissed off as he was before. It was usual for the mates of pregnant females to become very ter
ALPHA GAVRAEL FINAL BATTLE
GAVRAEL ~ He calls himself Zephyr, and seeing him manhandle my mate made me angry. But my anger wasn’t enough to break myself from his hold and regain control of my body. “Kill them all, I’ll deal with her. I could only watch as he took Adaira away from the battlefield, knowing that she was their only hope to win the battle against his beasts. “How does it feel having so much power but being unable to use it? You trapped me for centuries, took my memories, took my powers, kept me in this mortal body. This is just a slight taste of that. So tell me how it feels to hate what’s happening but not be able to do anything about it?” I could feel his amusement as she tried in vain to free herself from his grip. He was enjoying her struggles and her helplessness. I couldn’t even reach out to her to at least let her know that despite everything, I was still in here even if I’ve been pushed so far deep in my subconscious that I didn’t know the way out. But he had put an impenetrable barrie
ALPHA GAVRAEL NEW LIFE
ADAIRA ~ Gavrael is gone and there is no way for me to get to him. I wanted to use my powers to get across to the nether realm but Theia warned me not to do so because I would never be able to defeat him in his realm, he was stronger there. Our best chance of winning this battle is here in this realm, which means we have to wait for Gavrael’s return. By the looks of things, he would not be returning as my mate but as the demon king, with an army meant to obliterate us all. “There has to be something else we can do.” I said to Theia after waiting for an hour with no sign of Gavrael or any danger. My wolf was restless because my bond to Gavrael was so faint now that I had to search deep before I could feel it. I was terrified. What if the demon king somehow finds a way to sever our bond, how would I be able to reach my mate and bring him back? “You need to calm down. Your restlessness is affecting your pack. They’re already dreading the fight we all have coming, and they only stayed
ALPHA GAVRAEL RETURN TO THE NETHER REALM
GAVRAEL ~Heat, rage and pain. Those were the only emotions flowing through me at this moment. It was like my blood had been exchanged with lava and my head was being drilled open by a thousand nails. I felt the power of the full blood moon before it even rose and cast its reddish hue over the earth. This past week, I had to stay away from everyone except Adaira because I was losing my temper at the slightest provocation. I knew it was just because of what was coming that my restraint was shitty but at the same time, I couldn’t control myself which led to my isolation in order to protect everyone from me. Adaira was the only one whose presence I could tolerate even in those moments. And the second those rays of light from the full blood moon touched the earth, everything became worse.Heat, rage, pain. Nothing else mattered but these, and the demon whose soul was bound to me feasted on them delightfully. He was much stronger now and he was actively fighting me for control of my body.
ALPHA GAVRAEL HE LEFT
ADAIRA~I was eating more than normal out of anxiety. It was still better than worrying myself to death and overthinking everything though. My sleeping schedule was also wack but that was understandable. The full blood moon would rise tomorrow night and I just couldn’t bring myself to sleep even if it still was hours away. My wolf on the other hand was calm and mostly silent. After the night of the pack bonding ceremony where we all shifted to wolf form and ran as one pack to strengthen the pack bonds, she hadn’t made a push to be set free which was unusual. Usually, if I stayed for more than two days without shifting, she would be angsty and restless, whining to be set free, and I would have to shift and run even if for a few minutes. But it’s been days without shifting and she was still calm, I had no idea why and I was too preoccupied with everything else happening to try and figure it out. Maybe she understood the complexity of the situation we were in and was just trying to help
ALPHA GAVRAEL PREPARATION; COUNTDOWN TO THE END
ADAIRA ~ It took two days of mating almost all round the clock for my heat to die down and for the both of us to regain our senses. And as this problem was solved, another problem presented itself, our lives were just a myriad of problems nowadays but who’s counting. When we returned to the pack after my heat passed, almost all the other packs had come to join us, just two were left and they were expected to arrive in a few hours. But as I passed through the crowd, all the males were still attuned to my scent even though I was no longer in heat. Females were also drawn to my scent but it didn’t make them lust after me like it was confusing the males. It was a big problem because it was causing chaos and it was making everyone restless, and I had no idea why it was happening. In fact, it seemed to be even worse now than when I was actually in heat. Sage wolves had also been arriving from the human towns close by. They were wary but they were all put together in one house to await my
ALPHA GAVRAEL SUDDEN HEAT
ADAIRA ~ Just as expected, the rest of the pack took the news of Sage wolves with varying degrees of disgust, shock and wariness. When we announced the merger into one mega pack, they were even more shocked and awed. There were obviously protests especially when we let them know that we planned to get messages across to Sage wolves in hiding and have them come here to join the pack. But we also explained the great danger that would be coming against us and that we would only be able to defeat them if we work together. Next we let anyone with ideas step forward and speak. There was so much to be done; clearing the surrounding forest for instance, so those that would come to join us would have room to build their own houses, plans to build another general pack house where meals can be taken by a larger group because eating together was a shifter custom meant to ensure the pack bonds remain strong, same as hunting in a group and running as a pack on some full moons. There would also be
ALPHA GAVRAEL RESTORED
ADAIRA~I moved closer and held Theia’s mother by the hand. I forced myself to relax and put every doubt out of my mind. If I could protect the whole pack with the barrier, this was nothing compared to that. I didn’t really know what to envision, last night, it had been easier to see a barrier forming in my mind just like Gavrael directed. But now, do I imagine her using powers? Or imagine me giving her powers?It turned out that I didn’t need to do all that. While holding her hands, I felt some sort of vacuum, a hole in her essence. A missing piece. I didn’t need anyone to tell me that that must be the part of her where her powers used to reside, all I needed to do was to fill it up. I reached out to her with my own essence and I vaguely heard her gasp as she was zapped with it. Her hands were released from mine as she crumpled to the floor and her husband rushed to make sure she was okay.I opened my eyes to see that she was faintly glowing for a few seconds before the glow died do
ALPHA GAVRAEL WILL IT WORK?
ADAIRA~I was getting weird looks from everyone that saw me today. After eating by midnight and talking for a while, Gavrael and I had gone back to bed to sleep and woke up after dawn but later than usual, we were entitled to sleeping in after everything that happened after all. But as we left the room to join the others for breakfast, everyone was either looking at me with awe or fear or both. I figured out why when Gaby walked closer to us to speak to me.”Ady, did you really… you know, do that stuff?” She asked.She seemed unsure of how to ask her question and if she should even ask it. I also didn’t understand what exactly she was talking about, so I asked.“What stuff?”“The warriors that fought with you, they showed all of us what you did. We weren’t there but we could see it from their minds. It still seems a bit hard to believe. You were flying or floating, I don’t know, and you were glowing, and there was so much light. And you burned the dead ones, none of the creatures cou
